We just made this last night. Yummy. We, of course, didn't have time to cook the chicken in the crockpot so we just boiled it on the stove. If you do it this way, I recommend using at least one can of chicken broth in place of 2 cups of the water you used to cook the chicken in. This gives it more flavor. P.S. This makes a ton!

Welcome

Welcome to our food blog! We hope you love it. This is a place to view and share favorite recipes. Born from a love of food, this is a rather unconventional take on a community cookbook. We have several contributors (little piggies, as I fondly call them) and are always welcoming more. Our recipes vary in difficulty and ingredients so we are sure you can find something to fill your belly here. I LOVE FOOD! I am so excited to be able to bring recipes together from all those that I love and have yet to meet in one convenient place. I hope you enjoy it here. I also hope you get fat; on good food, good friends, and good fun! Enjoy

I absolutely love food and I really love to feed people! I get so much joy just from being in the kitchen (unless, of course, I'm doing dishes, which I HATE.) I love trying new recipes and literally have an archive of over 1,000 recipes waiting for me to try. I am wife to a most amazing husband and mother to four ridiculously exquisite children. I love being a mother and wife, there is no greater joy. Besides my passion for food and family, I have a passion for the gospel, fall, pottery barn, and houses... oh, and snow cones.

I am the wife of a handsome dairy farmer. We have four beautiful and crazy kids who keep me very busy. When it comes to cooking, I don't, not really. I like to cook, but my husband is what you might call a "picky eater" And I'm afraid he's having this same influence on my children. No veggies, spicy stuff, fun seasonings, etc. I love all these things, but it's hard to spend a lot of time and preparation on something that only I will eat. So mostly I'm all about cooking meals that have few ingredients and that are fast. I'm also what some might call a clean freak, so I don't like to make messes when I'm cooking. Thus I very rarely use measuring cups and if I can cook the whole meal with only one or two pots or pans, I consider it a success!!!

Jill (Mom)

I love cooking, trying new recipe's and reading cookbooks. I am married to my best friend and the most patient person I know. (Besides, he is HOT). I have 12 wonderful children, (eight by birth, four by marriage) and 10 grandchildren. I love to cook, garden, sew, quilt, read, sing, camp and be with my family.

Alyssa Breon

I am the mother to a beautiful little girl and a stinkin' cute little boy. I am also the wife of a sexy, and I mean sexy, auto mechanic. I love what I do as a mommy, hot wife, nurse, and friend. As a family we love the outdoors and to be together. My life is busy, yet so fulfilling!

As a child I appropriately earned the nickname Thunder Thighs thanks to my rigorous eating activities. I alone hold the reputation for downing a complete hot dog without chewing at the age of two, eyes watering, and then asking for more -- just ask Aunt Jill if you don't believe me. Yep I love food, but as I've gotten older I have come to love creating food just as much as consuming (thank heavens!), mostly because I like creating in general and its an added bonus that food creations smell, look, and taste good and are great ways for me to serve those I love. I am blessed with having lots of people to love in my life, and in particular for having a super hot husband and 2 adorable little boys, who don't mind that I'm the biggest dork alive.

Gina Mere

I am a mother of 3 beautiful energetic children, 4 if you count my husband and I LOVE food!!! Some of my fondest memories involve cooking in the kitchen with loved ones and sitting around the huge family dinner table eating and laughing. My love of food and cooking comes from my mom. I decided long ago that it is a blessing that I have such a high metabolic rate or I'd be huge. One of my favorite things to do is to try new types of food/flavors. I rarely measure unless I am baking and even then most of the spices are guesstimated and not exact. My favorite thing about a recipe is that I look at it as a suggestion and not an order.
